Speech Sound

Famous quotes containing the words speech and/or sound:

“The less sophisticated of my forbears avoided foreigners at all costs, for the very good reason that, in their circles, speaking in tongues was commonly a prelude to snake handling.

—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

“The hills are alive with the sound of music, with songs they have sung for a thousand years.”
